The Houston Texans have won their first game in nearly one year. What kind of free stuff do fans get to sink their teeth on? Let’s take a look and find out.

The Houston Texans are winners and it’s been quite a long time since we’ve said that.  With the team finishing 4-12 last season and this season starting at an 0-3 skid, the losing streak had somehow piled up to nine games in a row.

I really wasn’t counting the streak last season because I knew it was over after Deshaun Watson had suffered a season-ending injury to his ACL.  But now that key guys are healthy and ready for this season and they were still losing games, it certainly was a cause of concern.

We’ve pointed the fingers anywhere from the players being rusty to the coaching staff not having the goods to ensure that they’re prepared for each and every game.  It could be very well all of the aforementioned but the main thing is that they were able to go out and accomplish a goal that seemed to be quite difficult to accomplish — getting their first win in a long time.

Mind you, it was one of the ugliest wins I’ve ever seen and it was cheaply-handed to the Houston Texans.  The Indianapolis Colts’ head coach Frank Reich decided to wave a white flag in overtime by deciding to go for on 4th-and-4 so he could try to not have the game end in a tie.

It ended up being quite the gift for the Houston Texans and fans will benefit from this win — and any others that follow — so what will us fans receive?

Let’s take a look:

  • Papa John’s Pizza:  Extra hungry?  When the Houston Texans win, fans get 50 percent off their pizza order when they place their orders online — not offered in-store — with the promo code “TEXANS” and this offer can only be redeemed the day after the team wins.
  • Mattress Firm:  Looking for higher-quality sleep?  Fans get 40 percent off the Houston Texans mattress line when they visit any Houston-area store — all you have to tell the associate is “TEXANS WIN.”  This offer is valid two days after any time the Texans win a game.
  • Palais Royal:  Ready to outfit yourself at a discount?  The clothing chain is offering fans 40 percent off one item — some exclusions apply — either in-store or online when they use the phrase “GO TEXANS.”  This promotion must be redeemed the day after the Texans win.
  • Firehouse Subs:  More food!  When you buy chips and drink, the delectable sandwich provider is offering you a medium sub for free.  There are specific ones you must choose from and those include: Hook and Ladder, Italian, Meatball and Steamer types.  All you have to do is visit your nearest Firehouse Subs location and wear your Houston Texans gear.  This promo has to redeemed only on the day after the Texans win.

Statistical giveaways not based on wins:

  • Jack in the Box:  When the Texans score two touchdowns or more, fans receive a free Monster Taco with their purchase.  All you have to do is say “Touchdown for Tacos” and you’ll be able to take advantage of the offer.  This offer can only be redeemed the day after the Texans win.
  • Carnival Cruise Lines:  Any time the Texans score off a catching touchdown, fans are eligible to enter themselves into drawing for a free Carribean cruise.  I’ve been on a cruise before — specifically with Carnival — and it’s something I highly recommend!  For more details on this offer, click here.

That’s a lot of free stuff that’s coming our way so take advantage of it!  We certainly hope that the Texans can win as many games as possible as the season is still up for grabs but when the Texans win, these promos give us an even closer connection with our team through some popular retailers.

Plus, giveaways are so cool and as you can see, the ones for this season are quite lucrative!
